The Penco Soft PP Notebook in White offers a clean, minimalist aesthetic that fits perfectly in any modern workspace. Part of the iconic "Soft PP" series by Hightide Japan, this notebook is defined by its flexible polypropylene (PP) cover. This material is intentionally chosen for its durability and resilience, making the notebook resistant to water, dirt, and light scratches—ideal for those who carry their notes in a pocket or a busy bag.
The compact A7 size is designed for ultimate portability without sacrificing utility. Inside, you'll find 112 pages of premium, cream-coloured Japanese paper featuring a 5mm grid (graph) ruling. This layout provides a subtle guide for both writing and sketching, making it a favourite for architects, designers, and organised note-takers. The notebook uses a specialised thread-bound spine that allows it to lay completely flat (180 degrees), ensuring a smooth writing experience from start to finish.

【ABOUT THE BRAND】
Penco is the premier brand of the Japanese stationery house Hightide, founded in Fukuoka, Japan, in 1994. The brand’s name—short for "Pen Company"—originally began with a single ballpoint pen inspired by classic American craftsmanship. Since its inception, Penco has grown into a world-renowned stationery line that celebrates the "Golden Age" of mid-century industrial design.
Penco is celebrated for its "Analog Architecture"—a philosophy that blends the rugged, functional aesthetics of 1950s Americana with the meticulous quality and clever engineering of modern Japanese manufacturing. Every product is designed to feel like a rediscovered treasure from an old hardware store or a vintage campus bookstore, offering a tactile and nostalgic experience for the digital age.
